Then I went ahead and parted my hair in the middle, Tied in 2 low ponytail, tilted my head to the front, pulled the hair ties to the bottom until how much length I wanted to be cut. below is the video for that methodSelf-trimming my hair (Feye's method, U-cut) - YouTube

usually one would do a length cut and add some layers. But for my purposes, I have under layer of 2c and dint want a lot of layering there. Plus I had a V cut before so I figured doing the layers 1st then taking out the length would work much better and it did.

While I love long hair, I tend not to like super long hair. There's something sort of '70s about it and it can be a drag. I think yours looks gorgeous though. Thick, healthy and not stringy at all. Super long hair has the tendency to look stringy and straggly towards the ends. I'm sure you've seen what I'm talking about. So yeah, in this instance, I'd say go for in between because your hair is just plain gorgeous. If that doesn't do it for you you could always go shorter. I love short hair too. It's just it can be a pain to grow out if you decide to change your mind.
